My Series Imperius

[Vix_Giovanni]

Assuming you list the categories you will/will not edit, it might work to simply state that you will edit reluctance but not rape stories. Stating it in terms of "rape" instead of "non-consent" will go a long way to sorting the author's intentions, especially with the more amorphous areas like dubious consent. I don't know this for a fact, but I suspect that new writers of non-con are experienced readers of it and will understand the distinction. If a writer sends you a rape story in the belief that it's reluctance, a wake-up call for the writer is probably in order anyway.

Just an idea.

A good idea and I appreciate it. I’m going to update my profile this way, thanks.

Someone made fan art for my story. I can't post it because I haven't asked permission, but I might. They emailed it to me, on *their* birthday, and I can't even express how much it meant to me. Some of it was in the rough draft stage but some of it was finished and colored and it was all lovely. I'm indescribably touched.

That's quite a tribute. I hope you decide to ask! Your story must really mean a lot to them.

I got some fun feedback today.



"I saw your stories earlier today. Thus far I have read Imperious I. Very impressive and relatively accurate. I did find tw0 signifiacnt errors. First, is the word hurricane, which did not enter any western lanuage until the Age of Exploration began. the activities of Columbus and others not witstanding, approimately at the end of the 16th century. Second, is bathing suit, an American term hatched by newspapers hyping beauty contests in the1920's. Immediately prior to that peiod the term batjhing constume or dress was applied. Bathing suits were unknown and not worn until then. Yes, swimming was skiny dipping or perhaps in a tunic. As your story implies she was scantilly clad. In other words, wearing a thin tunic.
Now having blasted you a bit I have a request. I am working on a book or series of stories much like yours. Mine traces some women of Briton, roughly in the time of Boudicea, captured by Roman legions and brought to Soth America with stops in what became Portugaual, Maiera and Brazil. I am seekinga reviewer, beta reader, etc. to read and comment on my work. Are you availavble and interested?
Sincerely

I actually really enjoy this, but I'm so tempted to to ask how they feel about the "accuracy" of the sky-ships and the ballistic armor that chapter also mentions.

You must have got the sails and rigging spot on, and the metallurgy right.

A bit like the bloke who wandered into my sci-fi story set on Titan, could handle the astronaut and the angel-like alien okay, even the inter-species sex, but gave me a drubbing coz I forget about gravity being much less than on Earth - what was meant to be a perilous fall, he pointed out, would in reality be like falling off a chair. In a space suit .

I thought this was fun too. I'm a bit of a linguistics nerd myself, but not as much about the timing of when a new word appears. It seemed pretty obvious to me that your story is set in a sort of future/parallel world.

Though your commenter loses points, in my estimation, for immediately requesting your assistance on something.
